How to Use Cowpea as Green Manure and Food Crop

This course teaches farmers and learners how to grow cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) both as a nutritious food crop and as a green manure to enrich soil fertility naturally. Cowpea is a legume that fixes nitrogen, improves soil structure, and provides protein-rich beans for human and livestock consumption.

By the end of the course, learners will understand dual-purpose cowpea farming, integrating soil health improvement with food production in an organic and sustainable way.
